யாரோ இவள்
யாரோ இவள் கண்டே
மணம் திக்காதோ சொற்கள்
எல்லாம் சிக்கிக்கொண்டே
தொண்டை குழி விக்காதோ
Who is she, who is she?
Doesn't the heart stutter upon seeing her?
All words get stuck inside,
Doesn't the throat swell up with emotion?
என்னென்ன பேச
எப்படி பேச ஒத்திக
பாா்த்தேனே நீ புன்னகை
பூத்தால் பத்திரமாக சேமித்து
வைப்பேனே
What to speak, how to speak?
I rehearsed and checked.
If you blossom a smile,
I will store and safeguard it carefully.
இன்று பூமியில்
பூக்கும் வானவில்
வண்ணம் கண்முன்னே
கண்டாச்சு அதில் சன்னமாய்
கொஞ்சம் மஞ்சளை சோ்த்தால்
உன்முகம் உண்டாச்சு
Bloomed on earth today,
The colors of a rainbow,
I witnessed right before my eyes.
If a subtle touch of yellow
Is added to those colors,
Your face was formed!
ஏதோ ஒரு
ஏதோ ஒரு மாயம்
கண்டேன் என் முன்னே
உண்மை என்று தோன்றும்
வரை பாா்த்து கொண்டே
நின்றேனே
Some kind of, some kind of
Magic I saw right in front of me.
Until it felt like reality,
I stood there constantly gazing.
எப்படி பேச
உள்ளத்தை வீச யோசித்து
பாா்த்தேனே இனிமேல் இந்த
பாதை எப்படி செல்லும்
சொல்லிட மாட்டாயா
How to speak, how to pour out my heart?
I pondered and tried.
How will this path proceed from now on?
Won't you tell me?
.................................
மேலே போடும்
நீலத்திரை தாண்டி
என்னை பாா்ப்பாயா
சட்டென பாய்ந்திடும்
சத்தத்தை விட்டுட்டு
என் மன ஓசையை கேட்பாயா
Beyond the blue curtain draped above,
Will you look at me?
Leaving aside the sudden rushing noise,
Will you listen to the quiet voice of my mind?
ஏதேதோ சொன்னாளே
நேசம் தேகம் விட்டு செல்லும்
வாழ்வை பாா்த்து எள்ளும்
நீாில் குற்றம் கண்ட மீனை
போல துள்ளும்
When random things are said...
Love departs from the body,
Scornfully laughing at life,
Like a fish that finds fault with water
And leaps about restlessly.
யாரோ இவள்
யாரோ இவள் கண்டே
மணம் திக்காதோ சொற்கள்
எல்லாம் சிக்கிக்கொண்டே
தொண்டை குழி விக்காதோ
Who is she, who is she?
Doesn't the heart stutter upon seeing her?
All words get stuck inside,
Doesn't the throat swell up with emotion?
நீயா இது நானா
இது உள்ளே ஒரு போராட்டம்
வேடங்கள் கலைந்து ஆட்டங்கள்
முடிந்து என்றைக்கு கிடைக்கும்
வெல்லோட்டம்
Is this you, or is this me?
There is a conflict raging inside.
Shedding all disguises,
With all the games coming to an end,
When will we get a fresh trial run?
நோவெல்லாம் ஓ
போய் விடுமோ இது மணம்
கொண்ட குறை எது வரையறை
வலிவிடும் மட்டும்
திட்டு திட்டாய் கரை
Will all this pain... oh... vanish away?
This longing/flaw held by the heart,
What is its boundary?
Until it gives way,
It dissolves in scattered patches.
யாரோ இவள்
யாரோ இவள் கண்டே
மணம் திக்காதோ சொற்கள்
எல்லாம் சிக்கிக்கொண்டே
தொண்டை குழி விக்காதோ
Who is she, who is she?
Doesn't the heart stutter upon seeing her?
All words get stuck inside,
Doesn't the throat swell up with emotion?
எப்படி பேச
உள்ளத்தை வீச
யோசித்து பாா்த்தேனே
மொத்தமாய் நானே
கரைந்து போகும் நிலை
கண்டேனே இனிமேல்
இந்த பாதை எப்படி செல்லும்
சொல்லிட மாட்டாயா
How to speak, how to pour out my heart?
I pondered and tried.
A state where I completely melt away,
I have experienced it.
How will this path proceed from now on?
Won't you tell me?
ஆண் & பெண் :
அடடா
இந்த மௌனம் இதயம்
கொள்ளும் நீ வந்து மீட்பாயா

When random things are said...
Nesam dhegam vittu sellum
Love departs from the body,

As he struggles to find the courage to confess his feelings, he reflects on the emotional turmoil inside him, wondering where this uncertain path of love will ultimately lead them once all disguises and pretense fade away.
